  • I grew up with SFP hunting scopes, started using them for my desire for long range. Great explanation Mark, I personally think it helps knowing both but I’ve adopted the mil reticles for just ease of dialing.on longer ranges, and ease of remembering.
  • Great explanation of the differences, probably the best I've seen so far. Thank you!
  • @jcarne1015
    Thanks Mark. Best explanation of mil I’ve ever heard. Combined with the visual aid, it worked well.
  • Thanks for simplifying the difference between the two. I’ve watched a few vids from others on the specifics of each and have been struggling to decide which I want to stick with. Your video has definitely given me more to think about but in a more logical manor. I know the accuracy of both is dependent on many factors, my skill being one of them.
  • Always excellent videos. I have learned tons from you. Thank you
  • @waldo713
    The best explanation I’ve heard Mark! Thanks mate. 👍👍👌👌
  • @jpgreewal4
    Thank you have educated me.. I've heard this explained previosly by other Shooters but never articulated in such an easy to digest manner, learnt so much just from this one video.
  • @johnnyb2799
    I really appreciate your practical use, view and explanation of topics discussed in your videos. It’s so irritating when people over explain to try to sound smart. Good job man!
  • Always used MOA but will be making the switch to MILs, biggest reason is everyone I shoot with uses MILs, I'm still confused on some things but everyone says once it clicks it's easier 🤷🏻‍♂️ Good stuff from across the world 🇺🇸👊🏼
  • Well thought out explanation of the differences between MIL & MOA . The only reason i will probably go with a Mil Rad for my next long range rifle is simply because of less click adjustments , rotation and easier to see and read the tick marks on the dial than a Moa scope .
  • Cheers guys, good explanation as always 👍I'll stick to MOA, it's what i know.. Can't teach an old dog new tricks 😂
  • I went to a local gun shop and talked to the gunsmith about a possible build. He is also a PRS competitor. When i nentioned the scope with 120 MOA of elevation adjustment, i requested a 60 MOA rail. He said i would have to zero at 1000 yards and asked why i would do that. I just put his scribbled estimate in my pocket and left. Great video as always, Mark. Thanks.
  • @thebryguy96
    This is a great video telling realistic differences between moa and mil. Too often guys bad mouth one or the other but only have practical experience with only one of the two. Very few shooters have mastered both. Each has their advantages and disadvantages. Generally older American hunters won't know metric, so moa, inches, feet, etc are easiest for them. Military and prs shooters will know metric much better. Thanks for the quality content and for sharing your vast knowledge base.
  • @michaelreed1380
    Perfect timing, I was trying to explain this to a buddy new to shooting just the other day. Thanks and cheers!
  • Thanks for helping out a lot of folk who have been scratching theyre head over this one.👍 I’m currently in the market for a second scope and am tempted by milliradian but it’s just dawned on me that my other scope is moa and that having one of each and having to swap mindset when I swap rifles is probably gunna cause problems. So decision made!
